Carnival Launches New Loyalty Program: Carnival Rewards
Miami – September 07, 2026 -- Carnival Cruise Line has launched Carnival Rewards, a new loyalty program the company calls a first for the cruise industry, giving guests more flexible ways to earn points, climb tier levels, and unlock rewards regardless of how often they sail.
Guests earn points on nearly every dollar spent onboard
Under the program, guests earn three Carnival Rewards points for every $1 spent on eligible Carnival Cruise Line purchases, including gratuities. Guests also earn one point for every Casino Point retained in their account at the end of a voyage. Points can be redeemed for future Carnival cruises and eligible onboard experiences such as shore excursions, specialty dining, and spa treatments. Points post roughly 14 days after a voyage ends and are redeemable as soon as they arrive.
